When starting from stationary machine with gear selector in position 3 or 4, directional gear F or R is selected and the machine starts in 2nd gear.

Change of travel direction at lower travel speed takes place in 2nd gear. If travel speed is too high, 3rd gear is engaged first and then, when the
machine is stationary, 2nd gear acts according to the table below.

Automatic shifting
Shifting is automatic. Conditions for shifting are combinations of mode selector's (SW412) setting, engine speed and the machine's travel speed.
Automatic shifting takes place between gears,
Forward: 2nd – 3rd – 4th and Reverse: 2nd – 3rd – 4th.
Downshiftingto 1st does not take place until kick-down has been activated with any of the kick-down controls by the steering column, lever
console or lever steering (if lever steering is installed).
Upshiftingto 2nd takes place on further activation of any of the Kick-down controls or if certain critical engine speed and travel speed limits are
exceeded.
The gearshifting points vary depending on whether the engine is pulling or retarding.
At least 1 second must pass between two up- or downshifts. The time between an upshift and a downshift (or opposite) must be at least 3
seconds.
Shifting programs
LIGHT position 1, shifting at low engine speed
LIGHT position 2, shifting at slightly higher engine speed than in position 1
(Normal), shifting at slightly higher engine speed than in position 2
HEAVY, shifting at slightly higher engine speed than in position
Kick-down
Kick-down means downshifting to 1st gear by activating the kick-down function on the gear selector control or on the control lever carrier. The
actual downshift to 1st gear depends on the mode selector setting, the engine and travel speeds.
1st gear will be engaged if the machine is travelling at a sufficiently low speed or if travel speed is sufficiently low, 5 km/h (3.1 mph), within eight
seconds of kick-down being activated. When 1st gear is engaged it will be indicated by a short beep from the buzzer.
In order to upshift to 2nd gear again, the kick-down button must be activated once more.
Changing travel direction
Changing travel direction at lower speeds takes place in 2nd gear. If travel speed is too high, 3rd gear is engaged first and then, when travel
speed has been reduced, 2nd gear is engaged.
Engine retarding / downshifting
2nd gear is the basic gear and the gear in which the machine always starts when operating in gear position 3 or 4. Engine braking takes place
when the throttle is fully released and engine braking/downshifting button SW406 is pressed. Downshifting then takes place in steps, one gear
each time the button is pressed, from 4th to 3rd and, if the button is pressed again, from 3rd to 2nd if travel speed is below 22 km/h (13.6 mph).
Additional downshifting to 1st gear, see kick-down.
If the engine retarding/downshifting button SW406 is kept pressed in while pressing down the throttle pedal, upshifting is prevented.
NOTE!
As a safety feature, upshifting to a higher gear takes place if certain critical engine and travel speeds are exceeded.

Brake test
This function calculates the machine's retarding ability to obtain information on the condition of the brakes.
The brake test can be performed when the machine is driven at a travel speed of > 20 km/h (12.4 mph). Retardation is calculated and the
measurement result and average brake pressure are on shown on the display panel.
If the measurement is not approved, no measurement results are shown on the display panel.
When the travel speed exceeds 10 km/h (6.2 mph) for the first time after finished test, the test result disappears until a new test has been
performed.
The latest three approved measurements are saved for presentation in the service display unit.
NOTE!
The measurement result is strongly dependent on the road surface and the road gradient.

Central lubrication
The function engages central lubrication and prevents unnecessary lubrication of the machine, for example, when the machine is idling with the
gear selector in Neutral.

other words no signal activates the central lubrication.

General
The machine electronics are based on the principle that all communication between control units takes place via two data buses.
The machine's two control units are connected to the buses so that they can communicate with each other.
The different control units communicate with each other and report to the service sockets on data buses CAN/J1939 and J1708/J1587.
The buses conform to SAE standards and consist of two pair-twisted cables. The purpose of the twisted cabling is to protect the bus from electrical
interference.
If a malfunction should occur in a system, a signal is sent out on the information bus, making it possible to read off the information on the
operator's instruments or via the service display unit or VCADS Pro.
The illustration shows the principle on which the control units and service sockets are connected to the buses.
CAN/J1939 control bus
System control signals are sent via this bus. The control bus is very fast, which is a prerequisite for the control of the entire system to function
and quickly adjust to varying operating conditions.
The primary communication alternative is the CAN/J1939 bus.
J1708/J1587 information bus
The information bus is connected to the control units and service sockets. Information and diagnostics signals are sent on this bus.
The bus also functions as a "back-up" for the control bus, if it should fail for some reason.
The system status is continuously updated and available for reading by way of the information bus.

Preheating of induction air
The function activates preheating and warns the operator if there is a system malfunction.
Manual preheating is activated with switch SW201 and engages preheating if coolant temperature is below +30 °C (86 °F).
Automatic heating is selected by de-activating additional heating via the display panel. Heating is then engaged automatically if coolant
temperature is below +10 °C (50 °F) and the motor rotates faster than 150 rpm when the engine starts.
If additional heating is selected the heating coil will be connected in circuit when the engine has been started for additional heating a maximum of
4 times or until the coolant temperature exceeds +35 °C (95 °F).
The overarching conditions for heatingare to ensure that the heating coil will not take so much energy from the starter motor that the engine
cannot be started.
Engagement of preheating coil HE201 takes place via relay RE201 and is indicated by control lamp LC15 on the instrument panel.
Secondary steering
The purpose of the function is to make it possible for the operator to steer the machine when the primary steering pump fails and to notify the
operator when there is a malfunction in the primary steering system, or if there is a system malfunction.
